We just have to bear with them cuz that's African's mentality. They are naturally dull but religion seems to be a better alternative for them. Vigils are just like every other night just that in those nights, you don't actually sleep but eventually wasted the remaining 12hrs you are left with instead of maximizing its limited interval.

The day religious people starts thinking that they are not building a better world is the day that Africa will start moving forward.

felixomor:
Please give us credible statistics to show that africans are "obsessed" with night vigils.

Dont just make claims from inside ur head based on ur feelings!

They still live better lives than you

North Korea has been with atheism since 1948 yet their economy is moribund , the citizens are being brainwashed , the people live in insularity , their leaders are venal and the crime rate is unreasonably high . People get capriciously executed and religious ones are being used to test new military equipment .

Christian countries - Norway , Switzerland , Denmark - are the wealthiest and most progressive in the world . Russia left atheism and started flourishing . Christians own 55 percent of the global wealth while the rest of the adherents of numerous religions including the atheists , irreligious and the agnostics are left with 45 percent

You atheists excoriate Islamic countries for being backward while atheist countries do worse just to constrain their citizens to adhere to atheistic ideologies . Atheism is backwardness , atheism is mental slavery !


Say no to atheism !

Atheism and political idelogoy is to separate things, and further more; your have your facts wrong. Depending on what you mean by the label 'christian', for simplicity we can use the barna group definition (a person who believes in god with a capital 'G', thinks the bible is correct in all its content and goes to church at least once a month) the christian population is about 0.5 % of the Scandinavian population. If you count christians as someone who goes to church at least once every third month (no other qualification needed) its about 5% of the population. If you count 'christians' as someone who things it a cute tradition and like to mark life stages by doing a church wedding, a baptism or similar with a minimal mentioning of supernatural stuff, well its about 60% of the population. The rest is largely simply indifferent to religion. This has been the case for at least the last 70 years or so. In regards of economy your right. We, because I am scandinavian, have about 3% of the worlds GDP, and only have about 0,33 of the worlds population.

In regards of russia your also factually wrong. If you by 'flourishing' means an economy in full on crisis, drastically lowered life expectancy and increased poverty. Yes. They are flourishing.

As said, atheism has no bearing on the political ideologies, but it allows good solid solutions based on actual rational decisions. That helps when developing a nation.

And 60% of swedens population belongs to the former state church... You should perhaps note that Sweden and Norway until recently have had an obligatory state church, so yes, of course they have a large fraction of the population as members. Doesnt mean that the church has had any impact on the society though :-). Latest figure on people that have some sort of belief in *any* supernatural entity in some sort of way is actually 40%. Yet the church has 60% members. How odd. I for instance, am an atheist and have been that for all of my life, but on paper I am a member in the swedish church. Go figure :-).
